This is a vegan version of my Thai green curry. I started making this because I’d always liked the look of the dish in restaurants, but couldn’t eat it because I’m allergic to coconut. If you’re not (and you’re not worried about the calories) you can always swap the soya milk for the more traditional coconut milk.

• a handful of Mange Tout (snow peas)
